Future Tidbit: Seed Vault

Occasionally a few humans show a glimpse of rational, benevolent, long-term planning on behalf of those who will come after us: in this case, the Svalbard Global Seed Vault.  It is exactly what it sounds like. 

Edited to add: while I'm on this topic, there are christmas-light recycling programs that you can mail your old light strings to.  Because I am avoiding other work this morning, I finally boxed up my no-longer-lighting old incandescent light strings and will mail them off the next time I pass the post office.
